They weren’t exactly new best friends, but neither did Travis look like he might need an IV for dehydration any time soon. Kimber must have convinced him she was harmless due to lack of interest because they returned, sat, and didn’t say another word to each other. A few minutes later, some of Travis’s friends from his class showed up, and he left to spend time with them. “Don’t leave without telling me,” he warned Lacy, and then he was gone. Lacy tried to hang on and join the conversation swirling around her. She still hadn’t asked anyone about Summer, except Chester, but she was exhausted. The day had been too long. “Kimber, I’m falling asleep,” Lacy said. Kimber fished in her purse and tossed Lacy the keys. “I’m going to stay awhile. I’ll catch a ride.” “Thanks,” Lacy mumbled, stifling a yawn. At the bar, Travis was sucking on a soda and talking animatedly to an actual female of the species. Lacy didn’t want to disturb him when he had a good thing going.
